Abbott Claim - Review - Carlton - Willamette Valley - The Infatuation

"Abbott Claim is the best spot in the region to sample Oregon’s signature bounty while simultaneously feeling flicked onto the set of a Somm documentary. We’re going back to the classics here via tannic pinot noir, oak-tastic chardonnay, and nothing else, save for some glad-you’re-here Champagne before launching into a tour of the winery. The wines certainly stand out in the crowd, but enjoying them at a candlelit wooden table inside the cellar—funky mold and all—is what makes the tasting at Abbott Claim so special. Complimentary caviar-topped brioche toasts prepared tableside might have something to do with it, too." - Aimee Rizzo
